I'm grateful for this thread and hope my offerings enrich it. It's not easy to find music anywhere along this ideological spectrum, especially that isn't super-punk/metal/DIY.
This project band including Fugazi's Ian MacKaye, Al Jourgenson and Paul Barker of Ministry, Bill Rieflin (of everything) and Eric Spicer of Naked Raygun. Their "Man Should Surrender" might be the first anti-civ song I dug, back at 16 years old. Now that I'm anticiv and live on the Olympic Peninsula ("water will still come" = here, 66" of rain a year...I have seen its unrelenting power to destroy and marshal destruction via mold, insects and rodents), the song's resonance has renewed.

You engineer the stratosphere
You command this hemisphere
But water will still come
Man should surrender
Rearrange forms of life
Battle night with your lights
But water will still come
Man should surrender
Flying boxes through the air
Dropping cities everywhere
But water will still come
Man should surrender
Fire made for all to burn
Foolish end for all concerned
But water will still come
Man should surrender
Surrender now
I first heard of this guy on Free Radical Radio but I think Dirty Zerzy has played him too. He's perfect anticiv podcast bumper music. Some of the angriest and most radical lyrics I've heard, but delivered with classical musicianship (sorry I guess I'm reactionary in some ways lol). Sort of folksy/orchestral/parlor music with bluesy vocals. Also he rants on twitter @marmadukedando.

"The snivelling remains of humanity, scooped up off the floor and served back to itself. Masticated already in preparation for the toothless masses of this dying nation. If this is civilisation I want no part in it.
To think one can comprehend so little, yet live in such complexity is nothing short of a riddle. The deeply satisfying myth of progress, that faceless object that offers, divine purpose. If this is civilisation I want no part in it.
Another day, another horror. No one seems remotely bothered. Sat there all day twiddling little machines, sucking on dicks of men they've never even seen. If this is civilisation I want no part in it.
I would burn my right hand in a slow fire, to change the future before it expires. If this is civilisation I want no part in it.
The division of labour has outsourced your mind, the spunk's gone dead you can't fuck for you lives.
If this is civilisation I want no part in it."
